Our Information Webinars
Samaritans can also host a programme of webinars – raising awareness of emotional health, suicide, self-harm, how to seek and provide support, as well as an introduction to listening skills.
There are five webinars in the series:
- Emotional health and wellbeing
- Challenging myths about suicide
- Self-harm
- Staying resilient
- How to listen
Each session will include an introduction to Samaritans and then focus on a specific theme, sharing ways to contact or signpost to Samaritans. There will also be the chance to find out more about volunteering opportunities with Samaritans in the West Highlands and Skye area.
Digitally delivered information webinar/s for your staff team or community group. These one-hour sessions are an excellent way to build knowledge and awareness on a range of topics. Webinars can be delivered at a time that suits you, e.g. team meeting or lunch time learning.
